The Gullah Porch

How was your Thanksgiving? Mine was quiet. I had to work my day job and I cooked the day before but it was quiet and very nice. I like a quiet holiday, it gives you time to reflect and slow down. I hope that you had a good one! We are bck with the Gullah Porch a weekly series that we do on Fridays. We invite you to join us on the porch as we sip some tea, learn something new, shop a small business and get a question answered by me.

Some Wisdom

Being ready is a myth. You start. You suck. You figure it out. You get better.

Small Business Shout-out

I buy their popcorn every year to put under the tree.

Ask the Geechee Gal

Q: Did you watch the Diddy Documentary? Your thoughts?

I did…I knew but I didn’t know. He wanted to be liked and did whatever he needed to do to be liked and loved. People will do whatever it takes to make it to the top too and they will eff anyone over to get there. I don’t care for Fifty either but he seems to stand on business and what you see is what you get. With Diddy we don’t know what we’re getting. I feel bad for the guy who started the company with him who was homeless and got Sexually Assaulted along with others who were beaten and hurt by this mans greed and power. No one has the power but God. Also, the biggest lesson from the documentary was to trust your gut. Tupac didn’t like him at all and for good reason. If your gut tells you something up with someone, trust it.
